“Annotated Outline for Ethical Decision Making and Leadership Aspects in [Chosen Organization]” “Exploring the Role of Technology in Modern Education”
Create a 2-5 page annotated outline that includes the sections to be analyzed, ethical decision making aspects of the topic, main points of the recommendation, and credible evidence you plan to use for supporting the analysis and recommendations.
While everyone has their own process for writing, creating an outline is often an important early step in the process in all types of writing, even for the most seasoned writers. By creating an outline, you draft a plan that organizes your thoughts, helps you see gaps in your thought process, and enables you to decide where in your paper you will address particular issues.
An annotated outline is a document that organizes the main sections to be included in your paper. The annotations are based on thinking through your approach to the paper and developing enough detail that anyone who reads the outline can follow your thought process.
The purpose of this assessment is as follows:
To build an annotated outline that shows the key sections of your analysis, the ethical considerations, and the leadership and collaboration aspects that you intend to include in your capstone project. With this outline, faculty can understand the organization and purpose of your paper; upon approval, you may move forward to writing the capstone project (Assessment 4).
To help you manage your work because you will need to start researching now (if you have not already) in order to create your annotated outline.
To demonstrate that you know how to cite in APA format by including some quotations or paraphrases from researched sources. The sources you include in the outline may or may not be used in your actual paper.
To demonstrate your ability to create a well-organized document, suitable for academic or business, that meets established criteria.
Your annotated outline must state the name of your chosen organization and must include the following items:
Identify the main sections to be developed in the paper and tie them to the project objectives.
In your key sections, you should use at least four main headings; these sections make up the body of your outline.
Each heading must have at least two sub-points to develop the detail required.
Include a description of each major point.
Identify where each supporting reference will be integrated.
Include at least one reference to support each major point of the paper.
Incorporate relevant quotes or paraphrases from a source that you might use for support, with an APA in-text citation.
Identify main points that address ethical aspects associated with your chosen business.
Ethical considerations/aspects should also be one of the headings of your outline.
Use the program outcomes to help determine the areas of ethics that you might want to cover.
Include at least one reference to elaborate on how you intend to cover ethics in your project.
Identify main points that address leadership and collaboration aspects associated with your chosen business.
Leadership and collaboration considerations/aspects should also be one of the headings of your outline.
Review the program outcomes to determine the areas of leadership and collaboration that you should consider.
Include at least one reference to elaborate on how you intend to cover leadership and collaboration in your project.
Identify main points of your recommendations. Your recommendations should also be one of the headings of your outline.
Identify credible evidence to support an analysis.
For the evidence you provide, include key points to clarify why it matters and how it will inform the analysis.
Your annotated outline should have these sections:
An executive summary.
An introduction.
The body of your outline should be comprised of at least four main headings with additional subheadings and points. (Never use the word “Body” as a heading or subheading.)
A conclusion.
References. Use APA style and formatting for all the sources you use in the annotated outline.

Good
Afternoon one and all!
I have
asked all of my mangers, from the vice presidents to my department managers, to
be here today, so that I can share with you an exciting vision for Atha
Corporation.
I have
just recently completed negotiations with a venture capitalist to provide us
with the financial resources necessary to achieve an unprecedented goal: to
double our company sales in the next fiscal year, beginning 90 days from today.
You are
expected to complete this year’s business on a strong note. You will be
required to develop plans to add critical equipment and staff, so that we are
hitting next year’s goals from the first day of our next business cycle.
Each of
you will need to evaluate the organizational structure that you have now,
allocate existing and new resources, both human and equipment, to provide for
the greatest efficiencies and productivity possible.
I have
prepared a list of functional area goals for each of you to accomplish. Those
goals are in the manager information packet that is available in front of you
there. Each functional area vice-president will have specific goals, which are
impacted by the goals, objectives, and activities of the other functional area
managers. You will have to work closely with each other in order to ensure
company success.
We have
employee performance problems in most of our functional areas. You will need to
evaluate the source of those problems, and develop a strategy to increase
employee responses from their current levels.
Working
with Human Resources, you will need to properly utilize your existing staff,
and hire new people to accomplish your goals.
Work
towards unlocking the potential of each employee. Be smart in whom you hire.
Think strategically, act tactically. And, despite the infusion of new capital,
we still have limited resources, use them wisely.
Four Keys
Selecting for talent.
Defining the right outcomes.
Focusing on strengths.
Finding the right fit.
As
members of the management team, you will take your functional area goals and
convert them to actionable plans in alignment with our company goals. Help them
reach those goals – because their success is our success! Now, let’s get after
it!
Create your department’s response plan
(4–5 pages) to the new corporate initiative of doubling sales and the
information presented in the CEO’s Sales Goal
Announcement [PDF] Download CEO’s Sales Goal Announcement [PDF]. Make sure to address all
requirements.
